Dior Addict

Dior launched Dior Addict in 2002 and entrusted the fragrance to Thierry Wasser. The perfumer recalls imagining a very Dior woman, especially since the arrival of John Galliano, and concluding over his discussions with the house that it had to be an oriental, carried by vanilla and sandalwood.

The queen of the night

A night spent in Kingston gave him the missing note: there he smelled for the first time the queen of the night, a rare flower whose white, vanilla-tinged note, not overly animalic, struck him as perfect with vanilla and sandalwood.

The launch formula

Dior then announced a composition of mandarin leaf, silk tree blossom, queen of the night, rose, jasmine and orange blossom, set on a Bourbon vanilla absolute, Mysore sandalwood and tonka bean.

Today’s version

The description of the version sold since 2014 keeps only mandarin leaf, Tunisian orange blossom, jasmine sambac absolute and Bourbon vanilla. Dior presents Dior Addict as a fragrance that makes itself felt instantly, immediately.

What it has become

In 2026, Dior reinvented the Dior Addict universe around three eaux de parfum by Francis Kurkdjian, Rosy Glow, Peachy Glow and Purple Glow, presented in bottles inspired by the line’s lipsticks and fronted by Anya Taylor-Joy, Jisoo and Willow Smith.
